About the hack

Pretty simple application to explore the checkins API/OAUTH. A user gives permission to the app to see their checkin. These go to a map (courtesy of Google Maps!) Hover over a marker on the map to see the name of the venue. A list of venues is also provided at the bottom (with duplicates elimated). The user can annoate this (e.g. to give a trip itenerary to a friend) and save it. Didn't have time to build the retrieval side :(

What tools did you use?

Php, Google Maps API, EC2
